Call of Duty Ghosts Xbox 360 Update for December 12

It’s been quite a while since the last Xbox 360 update in November and the patch notes definitely reflect that. The November 29th patch is half the size of this months patch showing that once again, Infinity Ward is getting the job done to bring us the best Call of Duty game to date.

Various areas were targeted in this update such as Stability, Weapon Balancing (interesting) and a long list of Additional Fixes that included bugs, issues and a few other optimizations that give gamers a better experience.

The most important changes in this update that we found interesting was a reduction in the MSBS assault rifle, giving it a shorter range of fire, a reduction in the fire rate and the Burst Fire Attachment, and IW decided to remove the 2 shot kill to the arms and lower legs with an addition to reward accuracy. In the category of Additional Fixes, we find a list of 27 light to moderate updates that changed things like inconsistencies between single player and multiplayer regarding patches and backgrounds, added some optimization for clan wars and even corrected some splitscreen issues.

The list of fixes included things like missing popups on the Xbox when the controller is removed, bugs with the new icon, unnoticeable bugs such as long pauses when starting eSports mode, and various sound issues in-game that effected explosions. For a long list of changes, please refer to the patch notes below:
